Who Says You Need Expensive Equipment or Even a Safe Outdoors in Order to Get a Good Workout?
Here are some moves you can do that will offer a well rounded workout at no cost to you:
Jumping jacks – this move is a great way to get your heart rate up.
Running in place is another aerobic move
Alternating knee raises are a third great move in your aerobic repertoire
Pushups are a great way to work your arms and chest muscles and there are a number of variations-
- Off the wall
- Off a step
- On the floor on your knees
- On the floor on your toes
- Feet on a step and hand on the floor
For balance you can practice standing on one leg and for additional challenge, close your eyes and try and hold the one-legged position for 30 seconds
Crunches can round out this workout.
